Disposition 2: MAJOR INDUSTRIAL SURPLUS AUCTION – R3 Lithium | Complete pCAM (Precursor Cathode Active Material) Line, NEW 2023 Water Filtration Line & Chemical Process Assets
AssetBuilt is pleased to present Disposition 2 of the major industrial surplus offering from R3 Lithium, hosted on-site and online from Covington, Georgia.
This event focuses on specialized, high-tier chemical synthesis and materials processing infrastructure, headlined by a Complete pCAM (Precursor Cathode Active Material) Production Line and a Brand-New Installed 2023 (Never Used) Industrial Water Filtration Line.
From high-alloy continuous stirred-tank reactors (CSTRs) and multi-stage dissolution systems to crystallization, zero-liquid-discharge (ZLD) support, analytical lab instrumentation, and modern plant automation, this auction represents an exceptional opportunity for battery materials manufacturers, specialty chemical producers, hydrometallurgical refiners, water treatment facilities, and advanced process plants to secure late-model equipment without long OEM lead times.
